    I have recently created my first QFS filesystem. I copied data onto it
    from two old RAID systems and managed to use up all the inodes! Pah.

    I need to increase the size of the inode file which I put on a Solstice
    mirror.

    Is it possible to increase the mirror without destroying the data?
    I envision detaching one part of the mirror, increasing the size and
    then re-attaching it. Sync'ing the mirror and then repeating this
    process with the other half. I presume I then can use growfs to increase
    the mirror size to the size of the two larger halves. This machine is
    live so I don't want to have to reboot it (too much).

    Regards,

    Nick
